In Google reviews such as these, you often hear people praise the variety that any establishment has to offer. This restaurant, to challenge this belief of quantity over quality, offers very little.
The menu consists of coke, fanta, lemonade or beer to drink, and a schnitzel, cordon blue or pork steak, each offered in a few different manners. But it is in this manner that the dishes manage to shine; they are hand-made, and prepared with both love and mastery. Furthermore, the sizes of these few dishes on offer are astounding.
To top this all off, the staff is charming (even if it only consisted of the owner when I visited, who is a genuinely delightful man) and the place itself looks quaint-- even if the statue of a dragon right in the middle of the terrace looks a bit odd at first glance, the story that it tells is rich.
This is not some Michelin star-esque restaurant with small dishes, consisting of ingredients and flavours you have never heard of. It's simple and polished to perfection, and a place I definitely would not have wanted to...

So armed with the confidence of my Google-informed decision, I went over there on a Tuesday night. To say this place has an everybody-knows-your-name “Cheers” vibe is an understatement. I wish I spoke German so I could have slipped in less conspicuously. The cook/barkeep/proprietor personally handled my order (language barrier and attempted credit payment faux pas) with warmth and hospitality. Back at the hotel, I uncovered THE MOST DELICIOUS schnitzel with mushroom cream sauce and potatoes. The portion was more than enough to feed the two of us. Danke! danke!danke! I highly recommend and wish we could have eaten in and enjoyed a beer with it.
